et even a cursory look at the actual substance of Gabbard's dramatic claims shows . . . a nothingburger. There is no actual substance. Instead, there is blatant sleight of hand and manipulation of evidence, debunking a theory of Russian election interference that the Obama administration never endorsed."

"The U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) is confident that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of e-mails from US persons and institutions, including from US political organizations. The recent disclosures of alleged hacked e-mails on sites like DCLeaks.com and WikiLeaks and by the Guccifer 2.0 online persona are consistent with the methods and motivations of Russian-directed efforts. These thefts and disclosures are intended to interfere with the US election process. . . . We believe, based on the scope and sensitivity of these efforts, that only Russia's senior-most officials could have authorized these activities."
The USIC? That was Clapper, Brennon and Comey you idiot.
#24 In some cases the cost will be passed on but in just as many cases the importer eats the cost. Simple example for you: Two pairs of flip flops are on the store shelf. One is made here and costs $6, the other comes from China and costs $5. We put a $1.50 tariff on the chinese pair. Are they going to raise the cost of the chinese pair to $6.50? No, they will eat the #1.50 and still sell their flip flops for $5. They still make money but not as much.
